The Kilkenny Whiskey Guild

The first written account of distillation in comes from Kilkenny in the 14th Century with the Red Book of Ossory and the Kilkenny Whiskey Guild will celebrate and highlight this history.

The Kilkenny Whiskey Guild is a collection of 10 establishments throughout Ireland’s Medieval capital. Each premises will stock a minimum of 60 Irish Whiskeys and will assist in the customers experience through knowledgeable staff, tasting flights, food pairings and mixology.

Regular Whiskey events will be held in each of the Guild Houses designed to heighten the public’s knowledge of history, production and various styles. The Guild aims to make Kilkenny the leading Whiskey tourism destination in Ireland.

We invite all to join us in the Marble City where new friends will be made, old friends will be revisited and all while enjoying a drop of an ancient Irish innovation.
